Thanks for all the help! This is not a volume setting. The preamp gain never makes it past 3 in my basement! I followed up EdBo’s plan (sort of) and ran signal to the input at the front and used the preamp out at the back to a second (CS800) amp. This is full range output , with the volume knob...

Yeah.... but.... the bi-amp/full range switch STILL doesn’t work. Only at full volume in full range do I hear a little distorted high sound. Aaargh. Sent a message to Peavey already. Will report back. (Btw it works perfectly in Bi-amp mode, and it still sounds awesome!)

Newbie here. Disclosure upfront: I’m not a musician (I wish...) but found one of these MegaBass beauties at a garage sale. I use it to amplify small venues. I LOVE the bi-amp/full range option. It powers 2 ‘high’ cabinets (JBL JRX115) and a sub (JBL MR918) if needed, which is why I use the...
